Business travellers report feeling stressed and unsafe with female and LGBTQ+ travellers regularly experiencing harassment according to an SAP® Concur® survey
TORONTO, Nov. 6, 2019 /CNW/ - SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) has announced the results of a new SAP® Concur® survey revealing that more than 4 in 5 Canadian female business travellers have faced harassment while travelling. SAP Concur, the world's leading brand for expense, travel, and invoice management solutions, identified concerns of personal safety while on the road and frustration around ineffective booking and reimbursement experiences.
"This research clearly shows employees aren't getting what they need from their employers while travelling for business," said Victoria DeBoon, Director of Sales at SAP Concur Canada. "Organizations of all sizes shouldn't let these concerns go unnoticed. Employees want more support, resources and technology that will improve their overall experience and increase feelings of security while on the road."
The survey of 7,850 business travellers in 19 global markets included 500 within Canada. Notable highlights are:
